Education & Energy Training

Consilience has been providing education and training services since its inception in 1999. We have a long history of providing crude oil and refined products training courses publicly, and privately to both major and independent companies in the oil and freight sectors, to financial institutions, law firms, regulators, government bodies and universities.

Liz Bossley, the CEO, is a visiting lecturer at the University of Geneva, the University of Aberdeen and delivered an energy trading module of an MBA course for the University of Calgary in Balliol.

The modern business environment is changing rapidly and demands tight budgetary control, multi-tasking and staff rotation. This places a premium on organisational continuity and the ability to bring staff quickly up the learning curve to operational effectiveness. Consilience has well established practices for providing the best quality in oil and gas training courses.
